The Primordial Wizard

Chapter 5 The Corner

The old leader's voice stopped abruptly, and he and Ace looked at each other with bad expressions.

Following the source of the sound, Ace circulated the power of heart fire between his ears and eyes, and found something strange. It turned out that at some time, a short and fat man had already come here.

Just as Doyle and the others turned around to look, they felt a chill on their necks, and they saw their own body, and then gradually fell into darkness, and their thinking stopped.

Ace was condensed in his eyes because of the power of fire in his heart, seeing that the other party easily cut off the heads of the three of Doyle with a very thin metal wire, he couldn't help being shocked and angry.

He has lived with Doyle and others for nearly two years, and Doyle is very concerned about himself, but now that he died like this, he couldn't help being furious.

With this anger, Ace felt as if he couldn't control himself, the blue blood in his body was boiling, and he seemed to see a blue giant in a haze.

In an extremely short period of time, Ace felt as if he had lost his mind, unable to control himself, and only felt that his brain was congested.

In the eyes of the old leader, azure flames suddenly burned all over Ace's body, and his aura quickly rose. Ace's eyes were like beasts, and he roared in his mouth.

"It's broken, it got out of control after the blood returned to the ancestors!"

The old leader hurriedly jumped aside, and Ace, who had already been enveloped in blue flames, was like a beast. He punched the old leader into the air, hit the wall, and fell slowly.

The sound of breaking through the air was extremely sharp, and the short and fat man manipulated the metal wire, approaching Ace at a very fast speed.

Ace roared angrily, as if he could see through the opponent's movements, dodged with great dexterity, and rushed straight at the short and fat man.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the short and fat man embraced his arms with both fists, and with a click, his arms bent inconceivably, and inserted into his chest.

The short and fat man couldn't believe it, and said in the language of the people on the ground: "My line king, Nouvel, can..."

Before he could speak, Ace, who was out of control, crushed his head and couldn't speak anymore.

Ace felt his eyes go dark, and his mind fell into a coma.

...

The sound of ticking water made Ace feel a little thirsty. He opened his tired eyelids vigorously and found that the old leader was wiping his forehead with a coarse cloth dampened with water.

Seeing Ace open his eyes,

The old man grinned, it didn't matter, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

Ace struggled to get up, helped the old man and asked, "My mind seems to be filled with anger, and I don't remember anything after that. What happened in the end? Your injury?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "The dwarf we met was an accomplice of the monsters. He hurt me, and then you lost control and killed him. I will die soon. I need to tell you a few things."

Ace looked at the old man seriously, he also wanted to know something.

The old man gasped and said: "First, you are the only one left in our Field family, the others were all killed by that dwarf, this sewer is not safe, you have to go to the ground to hide.

Second, I am about to die, this feather crown and sheepskin scroll are tokens of our family, and they are all passed on to you..."

The old man seemed to have something to say, but he didn't say it, his eyes were wide open, and he died like this.

Ace hugged the old man in silence for a long time. He carefully checked the old man's injuries, and finally dug a hole to bury the old man and everyone in the Field family.

"You are such a gentle leader. You were obviously hurt by me, but you were hurt by a short and fat man..."

The old man's chest had obvious burning, which was caused by Ace's blue heart fire, and Ace was not stupid, he saw that the injury was caused by his heart fire.

Ace bowed deeply to the small earth pit where everyone was buried, and said softly, "Thanks to the Field family for their care over the past two years. Since I have used my body, I will also bear your expectations."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left here, focusing the power of his heart fire on his eyes and ears, carefully sensing the surrounding situation, and left here along the mouth of the sewer well.

Ace has been to the ground many times. Although he doesn't understand the language of the ground, he already has some understanding of the ground situation. The basic terrain, where there are many people and where there are few people, is clear.

"Although the so-called blue blood has been awakened, once the sun shines on the body, it still feels like being burned."

Not long after climbing to the ground, the sun began to rise. Ace was leaning against the garbage dump, dirty and smelly, wearing a dirty cloth casually, and just went to find a shaded place.

After a while, a few more beggars also came to this place. When they saw Ace, they were taken aback for a moment, then became furious, and said something to Ace at a very fast speed.

Ace didn't care, he pretended to be terrified and backed away, luring several beggars into the alley, a burst of wailing sounded in the alley, and after a few minutes, the beggars followed Ace away with bruised noses and swollen faces come out.

This is also Ace's first plan. Since he does not know the language and has no identity, it is better to mix with beggars first. Although it is a bit dirty, it is actually a good choice to learn the language and walk around to understand the situation.

After igniting his heart fire, as long as his skin is not directly exposed to the sun, Ace will not blister like a burn. While controlling these beggars with violence, he is learning the language of the people on the ground, lying in bed at night Then try to achieve a mental overclock.

Unfortunately, this body doesn't seem to have any magical qualifications, and he can't mentally overclock at all now.

"It's not that there is no way at all. As long as I am promoted to the first level of life and realize complete transcendence, not only my vitality and lifespan will be greatly improved, but also my spiritual power will be greatly improved. At that time, I can turn to the road of magic. Although it is tortuous Some, but there is always a way.”

When he opened his eyes, the stars were shining, and a few beggars were shivering not far from him.

A few of the beggars also tried to escape, but each time they were caught by Ace and beaten up violently. After several times, they dared not run again.

At first they were extremely resentful, but later they met other beggars and found that Ace was very brave. Their group of beggars defeated all the beggars nearby, occupied the best begging position, and gradually accepted the current life.

Ace smiled at them gently. It has been nearly two months and he has a basic understanding of the local language and customs. Let's leave tomorrow.

"Are you afraid of me?"

The beggars were shocked when they heard Ace speak. Ace hadn't spoken in the past two months and usually wrapped himself tightly in a dirty cloth. Everyone thought he was a mute, but they didn't expect to be able to speak.

A beggar boldly said: "I am quite afraid, but I am convinced that you can beat other beggars."

The other beggars also talked and convinced, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.

Ace raised the corner of his mouth slightly, touched the head of one of the beggars, and then found his own place to lie down. The beggars looked at each other, but seeing that Ace was already asleep, they stopped talking and gradually started to snore.

When the sun came down, the beggars realized that Ace had disappeared.

Ace has already changed his clothes. He has robbed some copper coins and silver coins from other beggars through violence in the past few months. He went to take a bath early in the morning, bought cheap and clean clothes, sheepskin boots, and put on a Black cloak.

This outfit basically made Ace spend most of his money, but he was not in a hurry, but wandered around in various pubs, listening to people's noise and chatter.

Taverns and brothels are the places where the news is the best, and there are all kinds of religions and nine streams, and this world is no exception.

Ace silently ordered a bottle of barley wine and a stack of Grudou beans every day, and he could eat a day's worth of wine.

He met an old man in the tavern, who would brag as long as he had wine, and learned a lot about the situation and history of the city from the old man.

The name of this city is Bernarda, which means "Hope City". Bernarda is the capital of the Kingdom of Hill. It is said that the great holy light came thousands of years ago and expelled the blue-blooded devil. Together with the priests, they established the Holy Light Religious State.

It's just that time has passed, and the unified Holy Light Theocracy is gradually falling apart, and the Holy Spirit, which used to appear frequently, no longer appears. If the Holy Light still exists, everyone's faith may be shaken.

A hundred years ago, there was a rebellion in the Knights Templar. The Templars headed by Hill declared that the Pope was a blue-blooded devil. The capital of the Theocracy becomes the capital of the Kingdom of Hill.

At present, all countries are implementing "religion follows the country", that is, everyone believes in the Holy Light, but some religious interpretation rights must come from the "Holy Code". The royal family has the right to interpret the "Holy Code" and has the right to appoint the archbishop of the kingdom.

Today Ace was inviting the old man to drink barley wine again, and asked the old man softly about the news he had heard in the past few days.

"Father Ha Jin, I'm short of money and I don't have anything good at it. I want to be a mercenary with others. I don't know if it will work."

Ha Jin took a sip of wine, burped and said: "I think you are tired of work, can you be a mercenary? Do you really think that the Mercenary Association is just a play house? You register a low-level mercenary It's no problem, as long as you have an ID card, but do you know how many young people died on this road, and if they have no money, they will honestly find a job.

Bernarda is so big, even if you go to the pier to move goods, you won’t starve to death. If you work harder and can endure hardships, Dad, I will introduce you to a carpenter’s shop as an apprentice. Although you only have three meals for the first five years, you can join the carpenter’s association after you graduate , to be a serious craftsman. "

Ace seemed to hesitate for a while, and changed the topic to chat with Hagin about the latest news in Bernarda City.

Hagin shook his head. Since the young man on the opposite side was unwilling, he didn't force it, and said immediately: "There are new things in Bernarda City every day, and there are no new things every day, because there is nothing new under the holy light."

Ha Jin babbled for a while, and finally said: "There are two interesting things recently. One is the death of the old king, and the election of the king is about to begin."

Ace asked a little puzzled: "What is Wang Xuan?"

Father Ha Jin couldn't help complaining: "You countryman, you don't even know Wangxuan. If you want to talk about Wangxuan, you have to start with the birth of our Kingdom of Hill. Our kingdom is different from other kingdoms. Our king is not hereditary. come, but chosen by the Light.

Regardless of origin or age, when the old king dies, every person in the Kingdom of Hill is eligible to touch the king stone. As long as the stone shines, you can go to the royal city of Bernarda and participate in the king election war! "

Ace was even more dizzy when he heard it, and he couldn't help asking: "What is the king's election war?"

Hagin didn't answer, he shook the empty barley wine glass and raised his eyebrows at Ace.

Ace took out the only silver coin and said, "This is my last property, father, please tell me everything."

Ha Jin changed two bottles of barley wine, stuffed the remaining few copper coins to Ace and said, "These are enough for you to eat for a day. Tomorrow, go to the pier to carry goods for a few days honestly and earn some hard money. I Then tell you what is the king's election war.

The so-called king is a person who "wears a crown on his head and shoulders the burden of the people". He has both rights and responsibilities.

When King Hill was dying, it was heard that he was inspired by the Holy Light, and instead of passing the throne to his heirs, he ordered the king election war.

Anyone who can test the king's stone will be able to enter the king's city, regardless of gender, age or age, will enter the palace to pray for the gift of the holy sword.

As long as they can get the gift of the holy sword, a mark of the burning holy sword will appear on the back of their left hand. Those who get the mark are candidates for the king's election war. They will have a brutal fight in the king's city, and the winner will be crowned king! "

Ace wanted to ask again, but the old man stopped answering, so he had to persuade him to drink.

After persuading for a while, Ha Jin said: "There is another piece of news. I heard that a particularly unruly dynamic organization has recently entered the old street in the south of the city. It seems to be called the Mayne Gang. The savages from the north have caused many murders. , you have nothing to do and run there recently. There is not even a guard in that place, it is a pure dark place, a kid like you, I am afraid even the scum will be gone after entering!

If you really want to be a mercenary, Dad, I'm too embarrassed not to help you after drinking so much of you.

Five days later, when you come to the tavern after dark, I will introduce you to a reliable mercenary captain, but I don’t care if he can find you. "

Ace quickly thanked Hagin, took a few more sips of wine, watched him fall asleep on the table, put on his cloak, turned and left the tavern.

"The old street in the south of the city? If it was a place of pure darkness, I wouldn't be afraid. The more fish and dragons are mixed together, the more suitable for blue-blooded devils to survive, isn't it?"

With inexplicable insignificance, Ace walked towards the south of the city with light steps. He was as flexible as a cat, jumped onto the roof in a few steps, stepped on bricks and tiles, jumped seven or eight meters, and moved towards the old street in the south of the city like flying .

Old Street is the filthy place of Bernarda, full of violence, crime, and undisguised, where a large number of poor people with nowhere to go are exploited by dynamic organizations.

Ace stood on a roof, overlooking the below, and several members of the vitality organization surrounded a young man. The young man did not look rich and had fallen into a pool of blood. Ace circulated the power of his heart fire through his eyes and ears, and saw clearly that the young man had already been stabbed five or six times in the abdomen.

The few vitality members kicked the young man vigorously, and said angrily: "It turns out that he is a poor man. I thought he was holding a bag of something good, but it turned out to be some weeds. Damn it, I should have known that I shouldn't kill him." If you kill him, you should take him back and sell him as a slave."
